Bring on the Dogs – a third series commissioned by Channel 4

Over the last two years, Mark and his team have been working to help dogs and the people they hang out with to enjoy happier, healthier lives together.It’s not easy being a modern dogs.Some really struggle.Following the success of six previous films and a live show, Mark’s canine crusade continues and the news series will air on Channel 4 in the summer.

As before, internationally acclaimed canine behaviourist, Dr. Emily Blackwell, from Bristol University, is in charge of all the cases and in a new feature, Dog on the Box, Emily and Mark will explore intriguing and bizarre dog behaviour video clips posted by owners on the internet.

There will also be a K9 Academy, providing viewers with practical tips on basic training. And, in Do Try This at Home, viewers are invited to try fun tests on their own dogs to see if they can find out, for instance, if their dogs are right or left-pawed.

About

I present TV programmes. Not what you might call a ‘proper’ job and not something I ever set out to do. It sort of happened by accident. But it’s not a bad fit for my kind of brain. I am annoyingly curious but have a short attention span.

I struggle with reading – much prefer watching – and I have picked up most of what I now know from observing other people far more gifted than me. It’s taken a while but I think I’ve ended up OK at making the complicated easier to digest.
